Mental Health Counselor

Hello! I am Cristi, a counselor at our Fox Chapel clinic who provides therapy services.
I had my masters in counseling psychology and have been enjoying helping individuals for some time. I have done individual, family and group therapy. I have worked with clients as young as 8 and as old as 64. I am certified in play therapy as well. I have experience counseling individuals with addiction, mental illnesses, grief, domestic violence, divorce, self discovery and many other areas.
I provide a comfortable environment and get to know my clients so we can decide on a therapy that best suits them and their lifestyle. I mainly utilize CBT and DBT and if it is beneficial play therapy for my younger clients.
I understand how hard it can be to let another person on to your life and open up. I believe at working at your own pace and will not rush anyone into healing. I understand some days will be quieter than others and I embrace that. I encourage everyone to be their authentic self and look forward to helping you on your journey to healing!
